Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned repeatedly as a primary automation and management tool, with no equivalent emphasis on Bash or Linux-native scripting. Examples and references to deployment methods (Azure portal, PowerShell, Azure CLI, ARM templates) are listed in an order that prioritizes Windows-centric tools. There are no explicit Linux/Bash command examples or references to Linux-specific tooling, and the documentation does not provide parity in guidance for Linux administrators.
Recommendations
- Include explicit Bash and Linux-native command examples alongside PowerShell, especially for deployment and automation scenarios.
- When listing deployment options, alternate or balance the order so that Linux tools (e.g., Bash, shell scripts) are mentioned equally or first in some cases.
- Add references to Linux package managers (such as apt, yum, or zypper) if relevant for agent installation.
- Clarify which instructions or scripts apply to Windows, Linux, or both, and provide OS-specific guidance where necessary.
- Highlight Linux automation options (e.g., cron jobs, Ansible, shell scripts) in the Azure Automation section, not just PowerShell and Python.
